Dr. Martin Swartz unsuccessfully performed a root canal on tooth #14. I broke my tooth biting on a cinnamon roll!! It was an accident but it could have been prevented if Dr. Swartz had placed a protective tooth cap. Through several calls to dental offices and readings from the library, I have now realized that the procedure for a root canal varies across endodontist specialists. I was aware that I had to wait 2 weeks before restoring and placing a crown. However, there is a risk in breaking the tooth during those two weeks and some professionals opt for placing a protective cap during those 2 weeks to avoid any potential injuries.
Make sure your endodontist places a PROTECTIVE CAP on your tooth while you wait for your crown. I do NOT recommend Dr. Martin Swartz.
